The courtship was fake, but the feelings...the feelings were getting a little too real. Sarah Grey has always dreamt of great romance. The spark when their eyes meet across the dance floor. The shiver of desire at the first touch of his lips to her hand. Carriage rides in Hyde Park. Declarations of his eternal love on bended knee. But when her father threatens to send her sister to an asylum if she doesn’t wed the wealthy and handsome Earl of Graham, Sarah not only faces losing her chance for love, she’s aghast to find Lord Graham doesn’t even believe in love. Lord Graham has always thought love is simply infatuation, a fickle, foolish emotion, and any experience of the feeling will soon fade. It’s the sort of thing only senseless females could believe. He has no time for love, romance, and all the ridiculous trappings that go with it. So, when he meets the lovely Miss Grey and feels something he’s never quite felt before, something that he’s not quite ready to face, it’s a very good thing he has no reason to see her again. Except the very next day her father arrives and threatens his sister with ruin if he doesn’t agree to marry Miss Grey. Can Sarah and Lord Graham discover the reason her father wants them wed in time to thwart his dastardly plan? When desire flares between them, will they even want to?
